“Yes, It Is Racist”: Michelle Obama Condemns Trump’s Re-Election Campaign
The 45 Lies project has recruited names like Black Thought and Talib Kweli.
Emmy and Tony Winners, TED fellows and independent producers, have created the 45 Lies project. In response to ongoing critiques of President Donald Trump, poets, rappers, playwrights and more are coming together to give their own personal critiques.

“45 lies SO incessantly,” the site’s mission statement reads, “that we’ve become desensitized to his falsehoods which inordinately impact the Black community.
